The members of the subordinates seemed to have heard the meaning of the emperor's father Yue Ling.

Compared with the country, Song, Wei, Chu, and Han, all are close neighbors, like a thatched cottage.

Now there are too much dry firewood and thatched grass in the thatched cottage of Song State, and it only takes a little fire to burn, so that the surrounding neighbors will be affected.

Before, the emperor's father Yue Ling took the initiative to ask Wei, Chu and Han to help. The general idea was that I would ask you to help me and help me move out the firewood in my hut, otherwise something would happen to my house if there was a fire.

However, Wei Chuhan and other countries looked at the reward given by their emperor's father Yue Ling, and after considering it, they refused because they lacked interests.

The emperor's father Yue Ling has now thought it through. Since you don't help, it's simple. My house is full of firewood, so you don't help, right? I lit a fire myself. When the fire surges, if you don't pay attention, it will affect you. Even if I don't give you benefits, won't you come and help?

Such riots in the Chinese people were not incited by a small group of people. The purest and professional "revolutionaries" have always been figures like nobles.

The State of Song is now like a house full of firewood. A little bit of Mars will explode and it is difficult to control it.

It’s just...who is the person who ignited the fire, and that’s a question.

There are too many things happening in aristocratic coups. In the era when kings, princes, generals and ministers did have a kind of experience, the aristocratic coups were reasonable, and the old systems and rules were recognized, and it was nothing more than the success, kings and defeats.

However, if there are people outside the aristocratic circle, or even people from civilian origin, ignite the fire, it will exceed the existing rules.

The people of Song State had rioted, Qi State had rioted, Zheng State had rioted, and even the people of Zhou Emperor rioted, but the result of the riot was to choose another person from the palace or nobles to take office.

Such a result was acceptable to the rulers of the old era. For example, Bao, the prince of the Song Dynasty, invited the people to buy the hearts of the people and launched a coup. With the help of his lover, he killed the monarch, but the countries did not interfere and quickly recognized his throne.

The emperor's father Yue Ling means that the Song Kingdom, which is now full of firewood, is just a change of master to outsiders. Although it is a bit beyond the reach of the brink, it is still within the rules of the nobles.

For example, if Dai Cong came to power, it was nothing more than Dai's family taking Song, rather than Huang's family taking Song. After the Tian family's division of Jin and the three families, all countries saw it more and were used to it. They might not be surprised. Even the Emperor of Zhou was too lazy to express any opinions on this, and naturally they were given a formal duke.

But what if this was not a noble coup? Even a national riot disguised as a noble coup? What if it was a more violent riot that even the nobles drove away?

At that time, the princes of various countries must send troops to interfere not for the sake of the emperor's family, but for themselves.

Otherwise, since the State of Song can do this, why can't it be possible elsewhere?

All the confidants understood the meaning of the emperor's father Yue Ling.

One person said: "That's true."

"Although Si Shang was strong, he had a grudge against Wei, Han and Qi four years ago, and the South China Sea destroyed Lou Yangyu. There were many rebellions in the area that had not been conquered. He had strong power and plotted against Song, so he would have to make enemies with Chu."

"They seem strong, but they actually don't want to fight. Otherwise, why do they need to support Dai Cong? There are many Song people among the Mo, and there are many fools in the Song people who want to submit to Si. If they really want to fight, it is very simple to enter the Song Dynasty."

"In the Shangqiu Incident more than 20 years ago, the ambitions of the Mo family's wolf man had not been revealed, so he borrowed the coup of nobles to seek personal gain to prevent shock from various countries."

"I'm afraid the same method is now. I want to use the name of a coup to prevent shock from all countries."

The others also nodded, and after being reminded by the emperor's father Yue Ling, they all understood the meaning of it.

The Mo family wanted to disguise the affairs of Song State as "brothers fighting each other" and the nobles were in a civil strife. Even though all countries understood that this was not just a civil strife of aristocrats, one thing was that the Mo family made a move and gave each prince a step down; the other thing was that the princes of various countries could not be defeated. Since the Central Plains War five years ago, the vitality of each country has not yet recovered, and most of them may be subject to one step down.

The confidants of the strategists looked at the emperor's father Yue Ling, and were shocked.

If the emperor's father Yue Ling sets this fire, it would actually be simple.

The Dai clan who was the most popular one who jumped directly; announced the ban on Mohist families from their activities in the Song Dynasty; forced the dissolution of various village schools; prohibited anyone from promoting the morality of the Mohist families; executed some people who were quite famous among the people; and large-scale executions of those who had connections with the Mohist families.

Now the Song Dynasty is on the verge of complete chaos. Once this is done, the consequences can be imagined.

Some very radical people in Shangqiu would immediately raise trouble. After executing the Dai clan, the leader would be the common people who had no right to be involved in the throne.

Nobles can make a coup at will, as long as they can win.

But if the common people take the lead, it will break the rules that kings, princes, generals and ministers do have.

Especially the more fierce the killing on his side, the more serious the revenge the opponent will be.

There are several fiefdoms with very small powers. As long as they can be pulled into the water, they will kill a group of people who think about equality in Shangqiu. Those who retaliate will definitely be cruel when they retaliate, and eventually they will reach a situation that is completely uncontrollable, and it is best to die with a few very small nobles.

If people can be sent to infiltrate the crowd and use hatred to hang the nobles, dismember the bodies, behead the heads, etc., it will definitely be an uproar in the world.

By then, it would be impossible for the princes of various countries to not come forward. The common people cut off the heads of the nobles and even carried out terrifying confrontations of the common people. None of the princes of various countries could sit still.

Because I cut off the heads of Song nobles today and don’t punish me, my head may be hung up tomorrow.

The nobles who take action first will not be criticized by the princes, but will praise them for being good at killing. But if civilians take revenge, it will break the rules and ruin the world. You must kill them.

Thinking of this situation, many people showed unbearable expressions and compassion.

At that time, Shangqiu will inevitably be bloody, and we will first take the initiative to completely arrest and massacre those who have prestige and ability among the people. Even if the remaining people rise up and riot, they can still control the situation.

The blood flows into a river in Shangqiu, which means that some nobles outside Shangqiu will also flow into a river in the fiefs. Once the common people are incited, some of them are involved in inciting hatred. The nobles can kill the common people, and the common people can also kill the nobles.

By then, great things will be accomplished.

Even if you can shout to eliminate Mo Wei Dao, the countries of Wei, Chu and Han must send troops, and it is impossible to choose to reconcile with the Mo family.

As long as Wei, Chu and Han send troops, Qi Yue will also send troops, and the country of Song will be preserved at that time.

Although it may be severely damaged or even destroyed by war, with 100,000 casualties, it is not important. What is important is that the emperor's father's clan will become the only master of the power of the Song State that can be recognized by the various vassal states.

The emperor's father Yue Ling considers the strength of Si Shang, even if Wei Chuhan sends troops together, he will not be able to completely occupy Si Shang.

But likewise, Si Shang absolutely has no strength to defeat the coalition forces of Wei, Chu, Han, Qi, Yue, Song and Wei.

Under the stalemate, all countries will inevitably choose the Song State that needs an existence as the front line in the fight against Si Shang. The emperor's father Yue Ling can seize the time to complete various centralized changes and stabilize their strength.

In the future, when the world changes, it may restore the hegemony of Duke Xiang or even the glory of Cheng Tang.

The emperor's father Yue Ling was convinced that if he didn't make up his mind, either the Song Dynasty would be divided or the Si would die in name only. Instead of doing this, it would be better to try it out.

As for the future of the Song State, the emperor's father Yue Ling has made plans.

If you really want to take ruthless measures, let Song State flow into blood and then be reborn in the fire, then what you need to do now is to reconcile with the other nobles who had conflicts because of the centralization of power, tell them to unite against the real enemy and extinguish the flames of the riots at the bottom.

If you are centralized, at most you will take back some power and you will always preserve the strength of the family.

But if there is a riot at the bottom, it will be a world-changing situation, and then all families will be destroyed by uncontrollable anger.

When the countries such as Wei, Chu, Han and Si were tired of fighting, he also had his own ideas.

Nowadays, all countries are reforming, and the methods of reforming are also different.

There are only a few types of Si Shang that are impossible to learn.

The reform of the Wei State began with Xihe, and the corresponding military system was the Xihe Wuzhang, which was a semi-recruitment system and continued the military merit system of the Three Jins.

The current reforms of Qin State are the same, just like the same, and they are also the military merit system.

But the road to Song State is no longer accessible.

Because the situation facing the Song State is that the land has been divided up by the nobles, there is no room for victory in foreign wars. Unlike Qin, Wei and even Chu, there is room for external expansion to maintain the military merit system.

And because this time, it needs to be repaired with the previous nobles, it will lead to no separation.

Qin State cleaned up a group of nobles, vacated some of the land, and then expanded westward.

The early reforms of the Wei State were to directly seize the Xihe River, drive away the Qin nobles there, and empty the land to distribute it to the rest.

The Song State had no land to occupy and divide, and now that we have to cultivate with the nobles, it is impossible to affect their interests.

Since this is the case, Emperor Yue Ling felt that why can’t he take another path?

His fiefdom was the largest and most of the entire Song Dynasty. He granted his fiefdom to the farmers on the fief in exchange for their service.

Apart from serving, they do not need to pay any taxes, only a blood tax obligation.

Taxes come from self-cultivated farmers, industry and businessmen.

Constantly instigating the conflict between the two parties that do not pay taxes.

By constantly squeezing those self-cultivated farmers and industryists, they have lost their land and wealth, thus becoming serfs with nothing, and then taking away their land, and granting them to private military departments as military merit rewards to cultivate land, expanding the population and size of their own control.

At that time, raise a private soldier who is completely loyal to himself and has a personal dependence relationship with him.

The other nobles can do this, but they have few land and population, so they have few private soldiers. The royal family with the largest number of private soldiers in the Song State can suppress the rest of the nobles by relying on those private soldiers and thus dominate the whole family.

In order to ensure part of the interests of the other nobles, we must gather some of the power, so that the existence of the Inquiry Yuan can be continued, so that each noble can serve as an official position, cut off the path of rising from the bottom, and make each family maintain a consistent attitude towards the fight against the bottom.

Because the farmer who grants land on his fiefdom does not need to pay taxes, and he can get military achievements and even divides more land, they must be loyal to themselves.

Those self-cultivated farmers, industry and businessmen who have to bear taxes, and those private soldiers who do not have taxes and only need to serve will never be lenient when they kill these people. The interests between the two are fundamentally different.

The emperor's father Yue Ling felt that this was a kind of retro, a kind of ancient difference between the country and the country; a kind of ancient man who always valued the ancient man.

At that time, those self-cultivated farmers and industry and businessmen will be like savages, only paying taxes and have no power or obligation to join the army.

The private army that gave the field joined the army and controlled the force. Because they had land and did not need to pay taxes, they did not have any interest in land or non-paying taxes, thus completely differentiating the bottom of the Song State into two types, causing them to fight each other and accumulate hatred.

In selecting talents, the policy of valuing wise men is not adopted at all, but the nobles are given priority, so that the nobles of each family monopolize the top leaders of the entire Song State and rely on their respective military forces and family forces to rank and enter the power center.
